Intro

Verse 1

Today could've been the day

 that you'd blow out your candles

 make a wish as you closed your eyes

today could've been the day

 everybody was laughing

instead I just sit here and cry

Pre-chorus

Who would you be

What would you look like

 When you looked at me

 for the very first time?

 Today could've been the next day

 of the rest of your life

Chorus

Not a day goes by

 that I don't think of you

I'm always asking why

 this crazy world had to lose

such a ray of light

 we never knew

Gone too soon

Verse 2

Would you have been president

 or a painter, an author

 who sang like your mother

One thing is evident

 would have given all I had

 woul have loved you like no other

Pre-chorus

Who would you be

What would you look like

 would you have my smile

 and her eyes

 Today could've been the next day

 of the rest of your life

Chorus

Not a day goes by

 that I don't think of you

I'm always asking why

 this crazy world had to lose

such a ray of light

 we never knew

Gone too soon

Bridge

Not a day goes by

I'm always asking why

Chorus

Not a day goes by

 that I don't think of you

I'm always asking why

 this crazy world had to lose

such a ray of light

 we never knew

Gone too soon

And not a day goes by

that I don't think of you
